He’s going to punish us either way, so play the ad all day long.
And bring back the big tech tax.
He’s going to punish Americans. His tariffs don’t do shit to Canada.
That’s not entirely true tbf. I know some people who work as electrical engineers in factories and the tariffs do hurt their businesses quite a lot
“they”
I’m not sure what the tarrifs currently are, but I’m not sure this is as dramatic as it sounds.
As an example, if the tarrifs are currently 30%, raising them 10% over and above what they currently are would make them 33%, right? …right?
Then again, he’s already proven that he can’t do maths
Yeah no he means that if they’re 30% he’s making them 40%.
Again, unilaterally and without the vote of Congress, which hems supposed to need.
Can someone please remove him? What the fuck are we even doing here?
Baffle them with bullshit. Make so many changes nobody knows what’s happening.

So far this is just being an asshole. No date/specifics is just him yelling at the TV.
You expect an old white guy to be able to do basic math in his head? Lmao
What an utter asshat.
Who cares anymore?
Glad they pulled those Reagan tariff commercials to appease him. Yet again they fall for his whining bitch-fest and give him what he wants and he does whatever he wants anyway. Stop enabling him.
Bring back the commercials. Bring back the digital services tax.
Yes bring back the dst more people will find Canadian alternatives
Doug Ford had some big dick energy planning to run the commercials for months but that spineless oaf backed down at the first sign of resistance.
Strange, I don’t seem to be paying anything at the moment. I wonder who’s really paying the bill? The American public you say?
Correction : He is raising the tariffs on Americans buying Canadian goods.
Canada has higher tariffs then Russia at this point, right?
BC Premier David Eby is preparing a digital ad campaign stating exactly that. Canadian lumber has higher tarrifs than Russian lumber imported into the USA:

And I hope he doesn’t fold like Ford.
Since Trump shit his pants, he didn’t need to keep running the ad. If Trump had kept his mouth shut, it would have been a blip. Since he filled his diapers, everyone has seen it, talked about it, heard of it, know of it. The ad did exactly what it was designed to do.
Why keep running it when it has become viral and people watch it for free?
Fair point, when the weekend stories came in I thought about changing my remark.
Of course, it does make Ford look really weak saying he was pulling the ad.
Gotta fund the Jeffrey Epstein Memorial Ballroom in some way during the shutdown.
Why? Do you think the government employees are making money while they are locked out?
I don’t believe that they are, but the people are still paying taxes.
Our grocery store used to sell avocados from the US and they were $4 each. Today I bought a bag of 5 from Mexico and the bag was only $3.99.
Keep going Trump. I like these cheap Mexican avocados. Without your shenanigans, we’d probably still be stuck with American produce.
US tariffs are on Canadian goods sold in the US. So, Canola, softwood lumber, auto parts, potash, etc.
I think you missed my point. Every time that orange idiot opens his face, he pisses his allies off and make them non-allies. He didn’t earn the relationship the US has with Canada by being diplomatic, but he has no problem demolishing it. His last term he dicked around and threw out a previously agreed upon trade agreement, so he signed a new one that was similar, and this term forgot that was his agreement and said it sucked.
Each time he dicks around, it motivates Canada to look elsewhere for reliable, trustworthy and sane long term partners. Since the US had decided it is no longer a friend of Canada and speaks of absorbing it, Canada has decided to stop shopping with the US as much as possible. This is how I now have avocados from Mexico. If the stores put US produce on the shelf, it rots. No one wants it simply because Trump is a huge piece of shit.
There is a growing desire in Canada for Chinese EV cars. They are just as shit as the US ones (except they charge faster and go further), but they’re way cheaper. Canada put a tariff on these cars to help protect the US auto industry. China had made Canada some nice trade offers, which aren’t so great for the US, but we haven’t taken them yet. Keep dicking around Trump. I want my Chinese EV.
I guess my point is, the more Trump tries to bully Canada, the better off Canada becomes.
Bigger picture: The US is failing, Canada sees this, and Trump is escalating it. This has really benefited Canada because we’re positioning ourselves to be better off when the US crumbles. Without Trump, I don’t think we’d be in as good position when it finally happens.
I think they also tariff Mexican goods, so Mexico redirects their exports here. So we get Mexican goods at lower prices. Due to the higher supply, lower demand.
Really? In America we buy Mexican avocados. I didn’t even know there were American avocados.
They grow a bunch in Florida and California.
Canadians still don’t pay the tarrifs.
Shocked Pikachu! I hope the people of the US realize that sooner or later.
Probably some time after the people currently absorbing the cost run out and their economy implodes.
I admit, even with the scary global crisis potential, it’s going to be kind of satisfying.
Is there a chance he means the sectoral tariffs, or is this just another symbolic one we don’t actually pay in practice?
We do not pay the tariffs, the people buying stuff pay the tariffs.
True! The more accurate way of putting it would be “our clients have to pay”.
Is there a chance he means…
Who the fuck knows what he really means.
It’s a complete mystery what’s going on in Trump’s head.
Huh, Ronald Reagan even says he’s stupid:
Well obviously he is a rino and an undercover antifa agent. Everyone knows that Ronald Reagan was woke.
